Spring time in the Jordaan

One of my favourite neighbourhoods in Amsterdam, the Jordaan, is wearing its best clothes these days: the spring clothes. I always enjoy a walk in this area, but this time of the year — when the streets are turning green and are decorated with flowers, when the days are longer and warmer, and people can finally have dinner outside — is the one I like the most.

Here are some photos so you can have a virtual walk with me in the lovely Jordaan:

Sun, spring, bridge and bicycles
Wisteria
A curtain full of colours
People relaxing at a small corner cafe in Jordaan
Beautiful entrance
Spring light over the canals
Green Amsterdam canal
Guess how many bikes can fit in a square meter
Spring flowers and Dutch inventiveness
Where there is shadow, there are no customers
Decoration in front of a small shop
Night is slowly coming over the old buildings

    Hi! I want to do a bike tour with my English friends. Do you know something about the biketours of Baja Bikes? I´ve heard good stories about it.
